Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Arizona is bound and determined to make sure we never forget the embarrassment of the birther movement. Most of us would love to put that ugly little racist blip in our history -- a time when conspiracy theorists and fools alike accused President Barack Obama of not being American. But Arpaio, a sheriff in Phoenix, Arizona, just won't give it up.
Can we say beating a dead horse, people? Sometimes it seems like certain politicians just do things to help out Stephen Colbert, Jon Stewart, and Bill Maher. After all, how else does anyone explain Arpaio's inane and insane assertion that Obama, a man who produced his birth certificate last year, isn't American?
See his ranting [here].
"Forgery or fraud may have been committed," says Arpaio. Ooooh no! Are ghosts and goblins real, too, Sheriff Arpaio? How about the Loch Ness Monster? Do you go visit old Nessie on your days off from enforcing the laws of Arizona?
In all seriousness, this is vile racism plain and simple. In a place like Arizona, it's no surprise -- after all, many politicians there (including Arpaio) hold rather Draconian views on immigration -- and it's disgusting. And it's getting old fast.
For all you doubters for whom book learning was apparently a challenge, here are the facts: President Barack Obama was born in Honolulu on August 4, 1961. He has produced both a certificate of live birth during the 2008 campaign and the long-form certificate last year. Neither has been disproved.
So why is this still going on? Arpaio seems like a joke, but, according to Obama campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt, Republican Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney doesn't think so. Yesterday LaBolt tweeted:
Romney has called Arpaio for his endorsement, his aides called "weekly" and Arpaio was his honorary Chair in 08.That's embarrassing. The fact is, most people agree Arpaio is a few cards shy of a full deck, but here we are still talking about him. Is this an alternate universe? Why am I guessing this guy is the type of person who stays at parties hours after they have ended asking for more chips and guacamole? Dude, the party is over, the ship has sailed, and you are beating a dead horse.
Sadly, there aren't enough cliched ways to say IT'S OVER to make it any clearer to this guy.
Discredit the messenger. They have nothing else.
Obama isn’t an American but he is a World Citizen and hells bells that should be good enuff for the likes of Saa-sha. Come back when you have something better to say than You a rassizt.
I have always said he was listed as illegitimate, no father named. It might not matter now but 30-40 years ago it did.
So, your other thread is a Big Gay Zot.

So now we’ll give you the attention you’re obviously begging for.
For the ENTIRE MONTH.
Next time around, come back on April 1 and post a thread about taxing bears or something similarly stupid.
“Are ghosts and goblins real, too,”
Yes, here I am.
“How about the Loch Ness Monster?”
Bob, this guy wants to see you pronto.
“Do you go visit old Nessie on your days off from enforcing the laws of Arizona? “
That’s patently ridiculous since Nessie is a Scot, and subject to the laws of the crown you dolt.
[At least until the Scots decide to take over England. But they’re not in a hurry to do so yet.]
Lovely choice for March’s Undead Thread!
Articles like this one are nothing more than part of the coverups.
JMHO
Yeah, we had a choice of one of two threads by this guy.
This one, or his Big Gay Zot thread.
This one was chosen, for reasons secret and unrevealable to all.
*eyes shift left and right*
Your secret is safe with me!
Cool, the new thread is up!
More fun and updates from the Sunshine State!
Yeah, and he’s a retread little deviant.

Racism is not the issue here. However, knowing the foundation on which our government’s legitimacy is based is vital. Please read Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution: “No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States at the time of the adoption of this Constitution shall be eligible to the Office of President.....” Bear in mind that all of the Founders and most of the Framers were British subjects until after the Revolution.
We need to be fully informed and clear about the ground we stand on.
Thanks for the ping. The Chihuahua is not the only one w emotional issues. I lived in MA a long time, and met many like Sasha. They are insufferable on just about every level: rude, abrasive, arrogant, snooty, etc. Most of all they lack even a rudimentary grasp of the ‘critical rational thinking’ process.
Plus, they subscribe to and actually read the Boston Globe. Even intelligent liberals know it is perhaps the most worthless rag in the country...yet people like Sasha still think it’s real newspaper. There is little or no hope for them; their self-lobotomy is too complete.
What is racist is the President of the United States launching a political organization called “African-Americans for Obama.” http://www.africanamericansforobama.org/
Obama announced its launch himself:

Today’s newsflash on their Website says: “For all the haters, your nightmare has come true! Obama is the President of the United States of America! Don’t hate, congradulate!”
Note to Blacks for Barack: Proper spelling is “congratulate”
Can there also be?:
- Rednecks for Obama
- Muslims for Hussein
- Crackers Against Obama
How about “Mulattos for Indecision?”
No, he didn’t. Unless he was alive in 1789.
Present, Darks! Unpacking the boxes now, boss!
Oh, and tell trewblew I said hello.
